Considering the DOW is up 300 points and the Euro is having a tough time keeping its gains, I wonder if the risk-on buy the Euro trade is finally starting to decouple.

Only when MM central thinks it can take believers in correlation for a ride!

Consider what it costs to shove the S&P one way or the other compared to E/U ... ah the possibilities for mischief!

Ditto for the less liquid ccy pairs.

Hi
I bought 6 x 24" (600mm) screens about two years ago for Euro 150/each. I also bought three stands - 2 screens/stand - these were approx Euro 90/each. You can buy one stand which will hold all six together but due to my desk design prefer the three stands. I run three PC's - old, ex office surplus, fully serviced etc - one PC/two screens. I also have a laptop which I use for email etc. I only use the trading PC's for trading and trading related sites - broker or chart packages.
Regards
Bill
Would like to see a pic of this setup!

I have a 30" and two vertical 24's on each side, it's been nice...

right now I am trading with Sony laptop,but it will be nice to have some good setup for advance trading.
you can pick up nice Acer Monitors, 27" for about $140 each. and build a basic system for about $1250 or so.

eu seems under huge pressure
Yep, well you had the double top off the trend-line, and now you have all those moving average death cross traders who are piling on. I'm just surprised given the strength in the DOW, I would have thought we'd be over 1.34 by now and test mid-1.34s, I ultimately think we're going back to the 1.35s before another major leg down, but that's just speculation on my part and that's worthless. lol
Yay! Pips for everyone!

I just took a look at a spare hard drive, but its not on there, it must be on one of my other drives that's gone kahput on me some months back; and I can't remember the software I used to recover bad sectors of the hard drive and that's on the bad drive too. then again, the read/write heads are naffed, haven't had the time to fix it yet.

And I don't have a camera on me.

You basically claim to live for electronics, but don't have a camera on hand or at least a phone with one? I call bullshit.

Not like I'd expect any less on FF.

b'cos my Son dropped the dang thing in the friggin' toilet
don't add 2 and 2 to get 5 dude without knowing the facts! there's enough speculation in the markets as it is

I asked him why did you take the camera to the toilet, his reply "I wanted to show you that I did a #2 on my own". lol

Kids eh?

btw, I said I'm an electronics nut, not a photographic nut, that's an Asians craze; i've never been all that photogenic.

Do you mean you're not all that photo-PHILIC? If you're not all that photogenic, I'm sorry to hear that.
